Bug: Front page keeps displaying only one category (6 posts)

    I have looked in vain for a solution to this problem for ages, and can find nothing. Hoping you guys can help.

    So here's the situation. It starts with my WordPress Blog working fine. My home page here:

    http://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/

    Displays all the posts in all categories. As it should.

    I walk away from the computer. Come back a random (and varying) amount of time later, and now if I go here:

    http://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/

    It displays only the content from one specific category. It displays the content that should normally be displayed only by going here:

    http://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/category/cool-stuff

    The only way to get it switch back is to go into the admin panel, and toggle Lockdown inside the WP-Cache plugin on and off. If I toggle that on, and then off, everything goes back to as it should be... for awhile.

    It'll work fine for hours, minutes, or days but then suddenly it'll go back to displaying the cool-stuff category on the site front page again. And then I'll have to toggle Lockdown on & off again, and it fixes it... for awhile... repeat over and over endlessly.

    I can't figure out why this is happening. It's a serious problem. Before you say it, I have tried disabling ALL plugins including WP-Cache and I still get the same problem.

    Help! What's going on? How do I fix this?

    I cannot simulate it. Does it happen on any computer for you or just on your regular one?

    It happens on all computers simultaneously. The site is changing to display this, so everyone sees it. Something is wrong with WordPress.

    LOL! No, I doubt it (or we'd hear more than one person hollering I promise!)

    What Plugins do you have running? Have you given any thought to which ones might be conflicting with wp-cache?

    I have never seen this problem with WP. In fact the page should never reload itself unless you have something third party that is causing to do that. I've loaded your page in a tab. We'll see what happens after a while.

    Meantime, you are loading a lot of javascript. Some of those files are loading multiple times (adthis_widget.js == 10 times) and some of them are loading as javascript but aren't like http://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/cse/brand?form=cse-search-box&lang=en .

    You might try to clean up some of this too.

    I have not seen any page reload in three hours.
